The Latest On: Grizzly Bears
Josh Purtle, Attorney, Earthjustice: “We agree there shouldn’t be an infinite loop of comment and revision. But when you’re pulling the rug out on the public, that makes previous public comment not meaningful.”
Katherine O'Brien, Attorney, Earthjustice: “Meanwhile, Wyoming will be turning 24 bears into rugs and wall hangings.”
Tim Preso, Managing Attorney, Earthjustice: “The ruling was significant because it called into question the service's standard blueprint for dealing with these large-scale listings of species like grizzly bears and wolves that were listed throughout the Lower 48 at one time.”
